  Poetic Hafla

  Doors: 20:30 Lettrétage in der Veteranenstraße 21, 15€

  Variety Show

  

  Poetic Hafla is an event series that focusses on presenting middle
  eastern/mediterranian artists based in Berlin.

  The main aspect of the Poetic Hafla is creating a place to experiment and to share ideas. For this many artistic forms of expression are combined: readings, music, stand-up comedy, and performances.

  The organisers say about themselves and their artists: "We are
  Mediterranian - a sea!", referring to the diversity of backgrounds,
  expressions, aesthetics and contributions. The event series shows the
  liveliness of Middle Eastern culture and the importance of Berlin as a
  cultural hub and home of the many. The Poetic Hafla provides a
  safe/brave space that is all about listening, embracing, sharing,
  appreciating each other and coming together.

  Poetic Hafla was founded in 2015 by Barack Moyal and Mati Shemoelof,
  two Israeli/German artists and authors who live in Berlin. Poetic Hafla
  is held mostly in English, Arabic and Hebrew.

  You can find a short introduction to the Hafla on YouTube.
